With the speed the world is digitising, everyone wants to learn some online skills as it promises a handsome amount. The Internet and digitisation have permeated deep into our societies and have altered the means of earning. The hard skills have been altered into soft skills. In today’s world, it's just the soft kills who enable you to earn handsome digits by not disturbing your comfort even. By staying on one’s bed, one can earn money by doing tasks if one possesses some skills. This mode of earning will last until the internet is and on the day the internet is gone, these soft skills will be of no use. How am I gonna survive this scenario?
It's been almost 5 years since I stepped into this online world. I earned in many ways from crypto trading to playing games, crypto marketing, social media marketing, and article writing. To sustain my career here, I learnt some basic skills as well but I didn’t make this my actual vocation despite knowing the importance these skills and online tasks have.
I completed my studies in the medical profession and I am a pharmacist by vocation. My studies open a wide range of options for me. Through my studies, I got handy on compounding and dispensing medicines, guiding about medicines, researching medicines, and being involved in drug manufacturing processes. I may work in pharmaceutical industries where I can be involved in like drug development, drug manufacturing, quality testing, licensing and sales, and marketing.

I may work in hospitals and can render my services in clinical matters. My skills and learnings enable me to take care of the clinical needs of patients and the drug guidance of physicians. I can work in pharmacies and dispensaries as my skills have enabled me to read, interpret, and dispense medications.
Thus even if someday the internet shuts down forever, I will still have something that will earn me my livelihood. With humans come diseases and disorders and for disorders, medicines are the solutions. Medicines demand an expert to deal with them because a layman will convert medicine into poison and an expert can make medicine from the poison. Thus,My skills and my knowledge will be sufficient for my survival in the world in which there remains no internet.
The idea of internet blackout appears to be a hypothetical situation but looking at current scenarios it does not look impossible as well. Countries are keeping animosities towards each others and with massive destruction weapons if war breaks out ever, it will surely disturb internet services. The disruption of internet services will be equally destructive as war is because livelihood of many people is connected to it.Conclusively,I believe that soft skills are need of hour yet one must be handy on hard skills as well.
